A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Inside the city lord's mansion in Qingzhou, Xiao Daoyun was listening to his subordinates' report.

The subordinate dared not conceal anything and recounted everything he had learned at the Tianbao Pavilion auction: "City Lord, the young master's items did indeed appear at the auction! Not only were there the Yama's Gift artifacts that the young master had used before, but there was also a cultivation technique called the Soul Refining Technique, which was bought by the Ma family!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Daoyun flew into a rage, letting out a cold snort. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! This time they really don't take me, Xiao Daoyun, seriously! They stole things from my son's room and then put them up for auction. I'll go see for myself who has the audacity to shit on my City Lord's mansion!"

The subordinate hurriedly continued reporting: "Lord! Also, besides the young master's items, there were items from the Ma family's medicinal garden at the auction! Someone stole everything from the Ma family's medicinal garden and put all sorts of precious medicinal herbs up for auction!"

Xiao Daoyun was taken aback, then frowned: "What was the Ma family's reaction?"

The subordinate spoke up: "Ma Chuxing, the eldest elder of the Ma family, was naturally furious. After the auction ended, he went to find the person in charge of the auction, presumably to inquire who stole their Ma family's medicinal herbs. It is said that the two garden guardians of the Ma family, who were also the two elders, also died in the medicinal herb garden."

"After the Ma family's eldest elder went inside, I don't know what happened. I only saw the young guard from the auction kill Ma Chuxing with a single sword strike and then trample his corpse in the street!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Daoyun was shocked and said incredulously, "What? The other party killed Ma Chuxing with a single sword strike? That's impossible! Although Ma Chuxing is old, his strength is formidable, and he has a wealth of combat experience. Did he let his guard down?"

The subordinate immediately shook his head: "No, City Lord! The people from Tianbao Pavilion are incredibly powerful. They indeed dealt with the Ma family's Grand Elder in just one move! Moreover, they said that no one can break Tianbao Pavilion's rules. Items auctioned within Tianbao Pavilion are sold based on fair competition, regardless of their origin or destination, with the highest bidder winning!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Daoyun calmed down.

He paced back and forth a couple of times with his hands behind his back, frowning as he said, "I had always suspected that Tianbao Pavilion was a fake, that someone was using Tianbao Pavilion's name just to seize the auction, but I never expected that person to be so powerful."

"From your description, he should also be a Golden Body Realm cultivator. I never expected that there would be another Golden Body Realm cultivator besides me in Qingzhou City. It seems I need to be more careful."

With his hands behind his back, Xiao Daoyun felt even more depressed.

Someone stole his son's things right under his nose, played a trick on him, and ruined the reputation of the City Lord's Mansion. Now, a Tianbao Pavilion auction has barged in, and it's so powerful!

Xiao Daoyun snorted coldly. He had previously thought of sending someone to the capital to investigate and find out what the Tianbao Pavilion was all about, but now Xiao Daoyun had no intention of doing so.

He knew he had to speed up his plans to avoid being disrupted by these outsiders!

Compared to Xiao Daoyun's sorrow, Ma Tinghai was so angry he was about to vomit blood!

Inside the Ma family mansion, everyone was trembling with fear. Everyone knew that the Ma family had really lost a lot of money this time!

Not only was their core medicinal herb garden industry wiped out, but the Ma family also lost three elders in a row!

Especially the eldest elder of the Ma family, whose strength ranks among the top two in the entire Ma family, can be said to be the pillar of the Ma family's fighting force. Unexpectedly, he also died on the street!

Ma Tinghai gritted his teeth and roared angrily, "Damn it! This is outrageous! The Tianbao Pavilion is so shameless! My Grand Elder just went to ask them a few questions, and they killed him in the street. Do they think our Qingzhou City is made of clay?"

Everyone around had their heads down and didn't dare to answer.

Ma Tinghai clenched his fists, but despite his anger, he dared not go to Tianbao Pavilion to cause trouble.

Because his own strength is about the same as Ma Chuxing's, or maybe a little stronger, but there is no essential difference.

Since the other party was able to kill the Grand Elder in one move, killing me in one move would be an easy thing for them too!

But if this matter were to end there, Ma Tinghai would never be able to swallow his anger!

After thinking for a moment, Ma Tinghai addressed his subordinates, "Go and fetch pen and ink! I'll write a letter to Xinran now, asking her to go to the Tianbao Pavilion headquarters and put in a good word for our Ma family, to see if they can help manage this branch in Qingzhou City! Our Ma family isn't without backers; my daughter is our backer!"

"She's thriving at Tianxing Academy right now, riding high on her success! Just you wait, you bastards, you'll regret this!"

Ma Tinghai immediately picked up a pen and wrote a letter home.

He first showed concern for his daughter's health, asking how she was doing. He suggested that if she wasn't feeling well, she should abort the child, since it was Chen Yang's bastard child anyway.

Finally, Ma Tinghai mentioned the auction house and asked Ma Xinran to use her connections at headquarters to manage the Qingzhou City branch.

After writing the letter, Ma Tinghai used carrier pigeons to quickly deliver the message.

Over the next few days, Chen Yang was quite surprised to find that things were unusually calm.

I originally thought that both the City Lord's Mansion and the Ma family would be in great turmoil and would search the whole city for the shortcomings and loopholes of their auctions, but I didn't expect that the two families would be so well-behaved!

It was only then that Chen Yang realized that fists were indeed far more effective than reasoning!

Chen Yang lowered his head and continued to try to cultivate the Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique in his hand.

The more Chen Yang pondered and pondered the Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique, the more he marveled at the domineering nature of this technique!

This Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique is indeed practiced by righteous people. It can summon heavenly thunder to kill demons, and of course, it can also summon lightning to strike opponents during battle.

However, the destructive power of this lightning is indeed not high for human cultivators; its main function is to paralyze opponents.

However, using the Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique to deal with the alien demons would be far too powerful!

The alien demons are very powerful. They come in all shapes and sizes on this continent, with different abilities, but what they have in common is that all alien demons are extremely difficult to kill and very cunning!

Some demons leave nothing but barren land in their wake.

Furthermore, whenever the Otherworldly Demon appears, it can distort the mental space of those around it, driving everyone insane!

Therefore, even the most powerful cultivators will be extra careful when facing otherworldly demons, because they might accidentally capsize in a ditch!

The Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique is its absolute nemesis. However, it is extremely difficult to cultivate!

Five days later, Chen Yang was shocked to find that his system status had changed and the words "Introduction to the Five Thunder Devouring Demon Technique" had appeared in the cultivation technique section!

Upon seeing this notification, Chen Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief!
